Yonkers City Worker Charged in Hit-Run Death of 16-Year-Old Scooter Rider

The Yonkers man accused of killing a 16-year-old boy with his van and driving away faced a judge in Westchester County late last week, prosecutors said.

A felony charge for leaving the scene of a fatal accident was filed against Stephen Dolan, 46, according to the county DA's office. He's accused of striking a 16-year-old on an electric scooter on McLean Avenue just after midnight Aug. 3.

The boy died at a hospital.

According to city officials, Dolan works for the City of Yonkers Department of Public Works.

"Our hearts go out to the victim's family and friends during this time of immeasurable grief,” District Attorney Miriam Rocah said. “My office is working closely with the Yonkers Police Department to investigate this case and support the victim’s family.” 

Attorney information for Dolan was not immediately known.
